For months, folks have been wondering who the fourth and final downloadable fighter would be in Mortal Kombat. Today, we know, and it's batcrap insane. Freddy Krueger -- the dream-invading, claw-wearing murderer from the A Nightmare on Elm Street film franchise -- is coming to Mortal Kombat on Aug. 9, 2011.

This Freddy rocks two claws and appears to be based more on the 2010 Freddy reboot than the classic Robert Englund look. If previous downloadable characters are any indication, Freddy Krueger in Mortal Kombat will set you back 400 Microsoft points or $4.99 on the PlayStation Network.

That sound you hear is my head exploding.

1..2..
Freddy's coming for you
3..4..
Better lock the door

I see his fatalities are based off of his kills from the previous films. Also just imagine: Freddy Kreuger vs. Kratos (for the PS3 version mind you). Who would win?

He needs a powerglove fatality.

Oh... My... Gosh...!
Freddy!
This is so awesome!
I mean... you fight as Freddy, and you kill people and you use awesome fatalities.
If they will decide to add Jason, I would die happy.
